I think that folks if they just gave some effort into learning a new tool they'll find it easierr than they may think, learn something that helps them. OTOH, if Microsoft would do it for them by putting out two separate versions of VFP (as you espouse) one to run under the CLR, they'll still have to deal with the differences with the two versions, and won't be better of for the experience.

Wouldn't argue for a second, Jim. The IDE wouldn't be different. However, as an experienced programmer, I'd expect another experienced programmer to pick up the IDE in a few hours, and don't really see it as an impediment to learning the language proper.
